you do sound kinda paranoid my dude

but yeah what i do or should i say what i dont do is

I dont watch the news, matter fact i dont watch TV and if i do its the discovery channel or the history channel

I dont listen to the radio, cant stand what they play

and i question EVERYTHING

I don't watch T.V. at all. I only read my local newspaper to laugh at it. I stay away from soy! Yup you heard me right. That stuff is dangerous.
BTW use baking soda instead of salt. much better for your teeth.

And please for the sake of others make your own shampoo. its not hard to do. A little borax and tea tree oil goes a long way.

When I brush my teeth, instead of using toothpaste, I just use salt. Sure, my breath might stink (if it's really important I MIGHT use mouthwash... or just drink a little vodka hehe)

When I shower, I don't use shampoo or conditioner (again, unless it's really important)

When I drink water, I ruefully think of ways to thwart any government plans to put psychoactive agents in my water... but I still haven't found a way

I don't watch television.

I don't listen to radio.

I read books and EDUCATE MYSELF!

I engage purposefully in recreational activities that TPTB have deemed illegal for me and my fellow men and women, but responsibly.... exactly the type of person they don't want to be doing such things. They either want total dependence, or total abstinence.... however it should be realized that responsibility is the key to doing anything.

I DO NOT eat junk food! I DO NOT eat meat that has not been hunted (and am mostly a vegetarian)

I try to buy food from local farmers, from the farmers market and whenever i can, i get pesticide/msg free/what-have-you free food. this is not always possible, unfortunately...

I GROW MY OWN FOOD! I grow tomatoes and peppers and strawberries... yes, it's minimal, VERY minimal, but every little bit helps.

I do not buy my beer. it's very easy actually to make beer, takes a while, yes, but in the end its not only cheaper, but you feel more satisfied getting drunk off beer that YOU YOURSELF have made

List your ways of combating TPTB against your mind and body

You are on the internet. Surely the government is brainwashing you through secret messages it broadcasts through your ISP. All those precautions, yet you ignored the most obvious one...

<_<

I knew this would happen. It always happens. I don't know why but people nowadays really mind people who don't shower every day.

I don't watch television not strictly because I don't want to be brainwashed... believe me I know about brainwash it's not nearly as easy as I'm making it out to be. I don't watch TV because it's stupid. Watch 5 minutes of programme, 2 minutes of commercial, 5 minutes of programme, 2 minutes of commercial. What do you suppose this kind of 'though pattern' will do to young, susceptible minds? What do you think has caused the increase in children with ADHD? It just seems counter-intuitive to me that such smart people would waste any time sitting in front of a glowing box, getting told to consume and to what standard they ought to live by.

I don't listen to the radio because I am not a fan of todays music. I don't mind people who listen to it, I have absolutely nothing against them, I just think a certain amount of... intelligence, perhaps, has been lost through the last few decades in terms of music. Personally, I like unaltered music. Music that's, for lack of a better word, REAL. And I certainly don't like listening to talk-show hosts.

I don't shower every day BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL I HAVE TO! I hate it when people bring up this argument of 'oh well you should at least shower for the sake of the people around you!'. Fie on the people around me! I don't care if I smell someone else's BO what's wrong with that anyway? Every time you go to the changeroom in the gym do you put on a gasmask so that, god forbid you breathe A SINGLE MOLECULE OF SOMEONE ELSES SWEAT in? For crying out loud, people always get angry at me for this decision but I am absolutely NOT going to change that. I do use shampoo every once in a while (and for the guy who mentioned using borax and tea tree oil that's actually really smart, thanks for the idea .) but not every time! I shower when I really have to (e.g. a date, an interview) but apart from that, I don't really.

No, I don't use deodorant. I don't mind the smell of my body at all. You know, the more you shower, the MORE you smell? Of course you wouldn't realize this because you never let your body smell at all.... I mean, honestly though why is it such a big deal? It's an odour that is emitted quite naturally by my body, and if you'd let it, it would happen with your body as well. But you don't and I don't see why. I don't not shower because I believe the government is out to get me. But I certainly don't trust these shampoo and conditioner companies because they are making money off YOUR paranoia!

I actually don't even consider myself paranoid at all. I don't REALLY believe in gov't brainwash anymore than I believe in the NWO or the Illuminati... Which is to say, I don't have any proof whatsoever that any of this is going on, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it were true.

But like one user said, it may not be a matter of brainwash entirely as it is simply social engineering. I find this to be just as disconcerting as outright brainwash. If they can make you think you absolutely must shower every day to fit in with society, what else? Think of all the things that you do in your day to day life that simply does not happen in the natural world - and all this amounts to milennia of social engineering. This is not the gov'ts fault perhaps, it might indeed be our own, but I am absolutely certain that the gov't is using this sort of social engineering to perpetuate itself.
